Remember player states like Shuffle, Repeat, etc.

• I carefully read the contribution guidelines and agree to them.
• I checked if the issue/feature exists in the latest version.
• I did use the incredible bugreport to markdown converter to paste bug reports.

I use NewPipe for listening to music and I use shuffle mode alot. Therefore I think it would be nice to remember shuffle mode, maybe this can be set as an option in settings. What do you think?

I usually start a playlist from bookmarks, and from there I have to navigate to the player queue and turn on shuffle mode.

I don't think this needs to be enabled in settigs. We could just make the shuffel toggel persistend.

I am working on this.
Also I think if we are persisting the shuffle mode, then we should also persist the repeat mode.
What are your views?

That is a viable solution. We might also look at implementing double tap on the background button to shuffle.

Adding another gesture to the background button (which aready has two: click and long click) does not seem right, also, Android discourages double-click gestures since they are typical on computers but feel strange on phones.
